Not old but not quite new
After considering the posts on this item I have decided to definitely include my briars in my regular rotation. I'm glad that I started this post however because without the comments given here I might never have learned to truly appreciate my briars. And best of all they are all things of...- cubie

After considering the advice given by several members I decided I should give my briars another try. Talk about surprise, OH MY. The estate Dr. Grabow gave me as fine a smoke as I've had since I started. The Stanwell was also pleasant but gave evidence that it needed a bit more break in. I...- cubie

Dave, your question provided me with some insight and a red face. I have a Stanwell Delux which I bought new and have smoked a couple of times. The only really cheap pipe is a Dr. Grabow Regal I got off ebay because it is really pretty and which I have also smoked a couple of times. Now for the...- cubie

That sounds like good advice Phil. It may depend to some extent on the tobaccos I'm smoking. Lane 1-Q is my favorite and I could be happy if I never had anything else. I also have some Mississippi River which is a close second to 1-Q, Captain Black which I bought at the local Walgreens before my...- cubie

I have been a pipe smoker since December but I only smoke once a day and about 3 or 4 days a week. I have some beautiful briar pipes (Stamwells and WO Larsen's) but my pleasure comes from my cobs. None of the briars smoke as cool or as tasty as the cobs to the point that I use my briars mostly...- cubie

I Bring You The Pipe Turds
Away back on the first page I made an ill advised post not realizing I'm way too new to be posting here. I stated,in response to a question, that I had been spending most of my time in the beginners forum. Cosmicfolklore posted that he didn't know there was a beginners forum at this site and was...- cubie

Todd, I like this post you just made. Maybe it should have started the thread instead of the other quote.- cubie

flatticus, you're right. If the first post on this thread was a quote and not a statement by pylorns then I do truly owe and extend him an apology. I should be more careful. cosmicfolklore, I've spent most of my time on the beginners forum, and the folks there are about as nice as nice can be...- cubie

P&C delay!!
I became a first time pipe smoker about 2 months ago because I got an unsolicited catalog from P&G which I found showing several items that looked pretty good. I've since gotten both pipes and tobacco from them and feel like I got good service. I know a couple of orders is not much but I give...- cubie

daimyo, If I'm not mistaken pylorns started this whole thread and spends much of his time bad mouthing other pipe makers. I don't like that but as I said it's just my opinion.- cubie

Hi, I've been a member for about 2 months but this is my first posting. One of the things I've truly enjoyed and appreciate about this site is the usual kind, friendly and cheerful comments. This whole thread makes me uncomfortable starting primarily with pylorns. Just my opinion.- cubie
